I though that Eclipse did, since Glassfish is/was an Oracle trademark, and since it is now now part of Eclipse I presumed that along with the transfer of code the trademark was also transferred.

The Eclipse Foundation was unable to reach an agreement with Oracle to license any of the Java EE trademarks, such as the specification names and the javax namespace.
